How To Create A Backup Of Your Medium Posts

Canva

A few months ago, I had a lightbulb moment 💡when I couldn’t log into my Medium account anymore.

Only with the help of my husband, I could manage to “hack” into my own account.

So I talked this through with my hubby and when I reached the milestone of 1,000 published stories I made a backup.

Here’s how to make a backup of your posts:

Medium gives you the ability to export your personal data and posts as HTML files in a .zip archive.

• Go on SETTINGS
• Scroll down to DOWNLOAD YOUR INFORMATION
• Click on Download .zip
• Click on Export to download your information.

Then you’ll receive an email and you can download the .zip file and export the data.

Karen Wettstein’s tip:

“Schedule a download task when you do a monthly backup!”
